Hi,

I have developed an Add-In for Project 2003 under VS2005 and .NET-Framework
2.0.
Setup works fine on my development machine and the machine of a colleague.
On the target machine the setup runs smoothly but after starting project,
the add-in is not available (no button in the toolbar, no menu-entry).
Developer machines and target machine are both Windows Server 2003 SE
I already tried
- Same Service-Packs of Windows and Project 2003 on target and development
machine
- Same Registry-Entry for Load Behavior (=3)
Filemon shows that the target machine doesn’t even look for the Add-In-DLL
on Project 2003 Startup (But the development machine does look for the
Add-In-DLL – and it works there)

I’ve got no clue what else to look for … :-(

"Prerequisites" was the keyword for a solution
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/newsgroups/default.aspx?&cat=&lang=en&cr=US&guid=&sloc=en-us&dg=microsoft.public.office.developer.com.add_ins&tid=bebc45c8-fa32-4de8-ae69-a4b91a827664&mid=c52122f9-1326-41da-81ca-062cb00ead2c&amid=c52122f9-1326-41da-81ca-062cb00ead2c&answer=1&p=1&stgxml=http%3a%2f%2fmsdn.microsoft.com%2fnewsgroups%2fsettings.xml)

My setup-solution had to include the office.dll in the setup dependencies.
